Maximum recommended low-gravity solids

Input(s)

SF: Maximum Recommended Solids Fractions (% by vol)

MW: Mud Weight (ppg)

Output(s)

LGS: Maximum Recommended Lgs (% by vol)

Formula(s)

LGS⁡=((SF100)−(0.3125∗((MW8.33)−1)))∗200\operatorname{LGS}=\left(\left(\frac{\mathrm{SF}}{100}\right)-\left(0.3125 *\left(\left(\frac{\mathrm{MW}}{8.33}\right)-1\right)\right)\right) * 200
